How does Tyrelane collect my personal information?

Tyrelane tries to collect personal information directly from you. That collection generally occurs when you:

  • Request information from, or have dealings directly with Tyrelane;
  • Submit your information via a form on the Website such as when you contact us, seeking mechanical services, or when joining as a fitter or mechanic;
  • Participate in a competition or trade promotion conducted by Tyrelane;

In some circumstances, however, Tyrelane may also collect your personal information in accordance with relevant privacy laws from other entities covered by this policy or third parties (including fitters and mechanics registered with Tyrelane), or publicly available sources of information. All personal information that we collect, is reasonably necessary for the provision of our goods and services to our customers and for the purposes of marketing communications.

We also collect information about visitors to this website using cookies and other identification technologies (e.g. through code embedded in this website, or through code embedded in your browser's local storage – see section on "cookies and other identification technologies" below).

Such notifications may be from Tyrelane registered fitters or mechanics where your information is collected (for disclosure to, or on behalf of, Tyrelane) by such an entity.
